Cry no more
You have tarried enough
They way is clear
Amble and be tough

For you to lament
For your older brother
Undue to your sadness
Will never get him back

Cry no more
For you are still loved
Though the road is slippery
You have to get up

For you to shed tears
For your deceased mother
Filling up a bowl
Will never get her back

Cry no more
And do not shun
Your comrade is in war
You have to get him back

For you to avenge them
For the death of a soldier
Even the highest caliber
Will never get him back

Cry no more
For I feel your pain
I have been counting your tears
We have been suffering for years

For you to regret
For the death of a love one
Will only make him sad
But they will never come back
